Comrade Ogah who advised the two villages to allow peace reign by cooperating with the committee set to look into their matter, also frowned at the action of Amana Stakeholders and youth leaders who boycotted the Peace meeting. He however called on the two parties to strictly obey the state government directives not to enter the said portion of land in contention, pending final resolution of the issues.

Ogah further advised them to see themselves as one people, appreciate God's gift in their land rather than allow those sponsoring crises among them to succeed.
